Artificial intelligence (AI) Sweetheart NVIDIA (NVDA) again makes waves, this time, restoring its title as the most precious company in the world. The Chipmaker, which is the basis of the AI boom and the name for the most advanced computing needs of Big Tech, saw that NVDA’s shares reached a new record high on June 25th. The overvoltage came after the Loop Capital Ananda Baruah analyzer described Nvidia as ready to ride on AI Gold Wave.
NVDA shares closed by more than 4% in a day, pushing its market capitalization only to Microsoft (MSFT). In addition to Bullish Analyst comment, what really caught the attention of investors was the aggressive price increase of Loop prices from $ 175 to $ 250. With the enthusiasm that goes high, can nvidia continue to rise and actually hit that lofty target in 2025?
Nvidia does not need to be introduced. This is the name behind AI Boom and the muscle behind everything-from games and data to self-driving cars. With its avant -garde chips feeding the next wave of technological innovations, the company firmly strengthened its place in the center of the digital revolution. Although it is confronted with some turbulence in 2025, a boiling of commercial tensions in the United States and China to fears about the delay in costs of AI and the increasing competition-Nvidia still remains a key player in the AI race.
Although the price price of Loop Capital’s street price has certainly led to excitement, there is a wider wave of optimism moving rallies. Investors seem increasingly congested that China’s export limitations will not derail NVIDIA management in AI space, especially since the global demand for advanced calculations continues to rise.
Adding to the bich tone, Chief Executive Officer Jenson Huang struck an ambitious note at NVIDIA’s annual shareholders’ meeting on Wednesday, describing AI and Robotics as “the ability to grow a multipurpose dollar.” Comments come at a time when governments around the world increase investment in sovereign AI to deal with critical national priorities. With the construction of inertia in both the private and public sectors, the history of Nvidia’s long -term growth remains as captivating as always.
Now, commanding a shocking market cap of $ 3.76 trillion, NVIDIA has returned to the spotlight fueled by Bullish Analyst Calls, a bold perspective on leadership growth and global demand for AI solutions. Nvidia jumped to a new 52-week peak from $ 156.72 on June 26. With 15% profit in 2025, the action has easily outpaced the wider S&P 500 Index ($ SPX) 4.4% Return from Year to the moment (YTD).

The fiscal profit from the first quarter of the chipmaker in 2026, published on May 28, did not disappoint, crushing the expectations of both revenue and profit. Nvidia reported a huge increase in revenue by 69% compared to the year (YO), reaching $ 44.1 billion and exceeding $ 43.3 billion. As usual, the segment of the data center stole the show, continuing to run the role of NVIDIA at the base of the AI Revolution.
The NVIDIA data business demonstrates a stunning 73% jump on an annual basis of up to $ 39.1 billion, which accounts for 88% of total revenue. The game segment also impressed, climbing from 42% to $ 3.8 billion with a strong demand for high -efficiency chips. Even car and robotics became involved in the action, competing with 72% on an annual basis of up to $ 567 million.
Nvidia was confronted with a regulatory obstacle in the quarter when the United States clapped fresh restrictions on its pre -approved H20 chip for China. Fallout was not small. The company took a $ 4.5 billion shot for excess inventory and missed at approximately $ 2.5 billion sales. This withdrew its adjusted gross margin to 61%, although without the impact, which would enter a much stronger 71.3%.
In the lower row, NVIDIA delivers a corrected profit of $ 0.81 per share, which is 33% compared to last year and beat expectations by 8%. Without the H20 chip fee, the profit would have jumped to $ 0.96 per share. However, investors seemed satisfied, sending NVDA stocks by 3.3% on May 29. Looking forward, NVIDIA focuses on revenue of $ 45 billion per Q2 from the fiscal 2026, give or take 2%. This figure is already baking in approximately $ 8 billion a hit on the most recent export limitations of its H20 chips.
On the part of profitability, Nvidia expects the gross margins of GAAP and non-GAAP to be 71.8% and 72%, with a pillow with 50 foundations in each direction. Despite the last winds, the company is not inferior. He still sets his views on the gross margins, climbing in the middle of 70% by the end of the year.
Nourishing NVIDIA’s latest jump, Loop Capital has strengthened its price target from $ 175 to $ 250, confirming its BUY rating. Analyzer Ananda Barua does not restrain himself in his boss’s perspective, noting that we are entering the next “golden wave” of generative reception of AI, with Nvidia positioned precisely in the foreground. According to Baruah, the demand for NVIDIA high-end AI chips is increasing even faster than expected, placing the scene for another powerful growth leg.
In general, Nvidia continues to enjoy the unwavering support of Wall Street, where consensus remains a huge “strong purchase”. Of the 44 analysts who offer recommendations, 37 give the shares of the NVDA Rating Strong Purchase, three offer “moderate purchase”, three offer “Retention” and one analyzer stands for a “strong sale” rating.
The average price price of the $ 174.84 analyzer shows 13% potential up from current price levels. However, the price of the Loop Capital street of $ 250 suggests that the action can be raised up to 61%. With solid foundations, elevation of the search for AI and the strong support from Wall Street, the climb of NVIDIA to $ 250 in 2025 can be bold, but it seems more and more.
